Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of parachute application technology, and more specifically to a parachute system for cloud bombs. Background Technology

[0002] As a means of attack in modern warfare, thermobaric bombs have a greater killing advantage over traditional aerial bombs in attacking enemy personnel inside bunkers and caves, and have the advantages of high battlefield lethality and strong deterrent effect.

[0003] With the rapid development of aviation technology, thermobaric weapon parachute systems are facing new challenges due to high deployment speeds. For example, patent document No. 202211499756.6 discloses a deceleration parachute system for thermobaric weapons, specifically including a first parachute and a second parachute. The bottom of the first parachute is connected to the thermobaric weapon, and the top of the first parachute is connected to a secondary detonation device. The bottom of the second parachute is connected to the secondary detonation device. With the above technical solution, the parachute system will generate a large deployment force under high-speed conditions. The large deployment force will not only place higher demands on the structural design of the secondary detonation device, but will also have an adverse impact on the safety of the secondary detonation device.

[0004] In response to this situation, the present invention provides a parachute system design for a thermobaric weapon, which is used on thermobaric weapons with high opening speeds to avoid the adverse effects of the large opening force generated by the deceleration parachute on the secondary detonation device. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and provide a parachute system for cloud explosive bombs, solving the problem that the large opening force in the prior art will adversely affect the safety of the detonation device.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] This invention provides a parachute system for a thermobaric bomb, comprising a deceleration parachute, a main parachute, a thermobaric bomb, and a cloud detonation device. The bottom of the main parachute is connected to the thermobaric bomb. Multiple parachute lines at the bottom of the deceleration parachute are connected to the top of the main parachute. The multiple parachute lines at the bottom of the deceleration parachute enclose an installation space. The system also includes an installation package with an internal cavity and a connector. The installation package is disposed within the installation space, and its periphery is fixedly connected to the multiple parachute lines of the deceleration parachute. The cloud detonation device is disposed within the cavity of the installation package. The connector is connected to the installation package. The connector has a first state of closing the cavity and a second state of opening the cavity to form an opening. In the first state, the cloud detonation device can be fixed within the cavity of the installation package. In the second state, the cloud detonation device can enter and exit the cavity through the opening.

[0008] In some embodiments, the mounting package is cylindrical in shape, and a plurality of connecting straps are provided at circumferential intervals at the open end of the mounting package. The connector is connected to the plurality of connecting straps to form a first state that closes the cavity.

[0009] In some embodiments, each of the plurality of connecting straps is provided with a connecting hole, and the connector includes a binding rope, which can be threaded through each connecting hole on each of the connecting straps, and the opposite ends of the binding rope can be knotted for fixation.

[0010] In some embodiments, the deceleration parachute has a first form and a second form. When the deceleration parachute is in the first form, it is stacked on top of the cloud detonation device. When the deceleration parachute is in the second form, it can be raised to form an umbrella-shaped structure.

[0011] In some embodiments, the main umbrella has a third form and a fourth form. When the main umbrella is in the third form, it is stacked on top of the thermobaric bomb. When the main umbrella is in the fourth form, it can be opened to form an umbrella-shaped structure.

[0012] In some embodiments, the main parachute includes a canopy and multiple radial strips, one end of each radial strip is evenly arranged and connected along the circumference of the canopy, and the other end of each radial strip is connected to the thermobaric bomb. Each of the parachute lines of the deceleration parachute is respectively connected to each of the radial strips of the main parachute.

[0013] In some embodiments, a vent is provided at the top of the canopy of the main umbrella.

[0014] In some embodiments, the length of the deceleration parachute's lines is less than the length of the main parachute's radial strips.

[0015] In some embodiments, the length of the connecting strap is 1 / 2 to 2 / 3 of the radius of the mounting package.

[0016] In some embodiments, both the deceleration parachute and the main parachute are made of nylon fabric.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a parachute system for a thermobaric bomb. The main parachute is connected to the thermobaric bomb at its bottom, and multiple parachute lines at the bottom of the deceleration parachute are connected to the top of the main parachute. The multiple parachute lines at the bottom of the deceleration parachute form an installation space. An installation bag is placed in the installation space, and the periphery of the installation bag is fixedly connected to the multiple parachute lines of the deceleration parachute. The cloud detonation device is placed in the cavity of the installation bag, and a connector is connected to the installation bag to fix the cloud detonation device in the installation bag. Under the condition of high deceleration parachute opening speed, the opening force generated by the deceleration parachute is directly transmitted to the main parachute through multiple parachute lines, and then to the thermobaric bomb through the main parachute. This effectively avoids the situation where the opening force is directly transmitted to the cloud detonation device, causing damage to the cloud detonation device. Attached Figure Description

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This invention provides a parachute system for a thermobaric weapon. This parachute system avoids the situation where, under high-speed conditions, the parachute system generates a large opening force, which could adversely affect the safety of the detonation device.

[0024] In this specific embodiment, a parachute system for a thermobaric bomb includes a deceleration parachute 1, a main parachute 2, a thermobaric bomb 3, and a cloud detonation device 4. The bottom of the main parachute 2 is connected to the thermobaric bomb 3. Multiple parachute lines 11 at the bottom of the deceleration parachute 1 are connected to the top of the main parachute 2. The multiple parachute lines 11 at the bottom of the deceleration parachute 1 enclose an installation space. The system also includes an installation package 5 with an internal cavity and a connector 6. The installation package 5 is disposed within the installation space, and its periphery is fixedly connected to the multiple parachute lines 11 of the deceleration parachute 1. The cloud detonation device 4 is disposed within the cavity of the installation package 5. The connector 6 is connected to the installation package 5. The connector 6 has a first state of closing the cavity and a second state of opening the cavity to form an opening. In the first state, the cloud detonation device 4 can be fixed within the cavity of the installation package 5. In the second state, the cloud detonation device 4 can enter and exit the cavity through the opening.

[0025] In actual use, the installation package 5 is placed in the installation space, and the periphery of the installation package 5 is fixedly connected to the multiple parachute lines 11 of the deceleration parachute 1. The cloud detonation device 4 is placed in the cavity of the installation package 5, and the connector 6 is connected to the installation package 5. The connector 6 can fix the cloud detonation device 4 in the cavity of the installation package 5. When the thermobaric bomb 3 descends at high speed, the main parachute 2 opens first, and then the deceleration parachute 1 opens. The opening force of the deceleration parachute 1 will be directly transmitted to the deceleration parachute 1 and will not have an adverse effect on the cloud detonation device 4.

[0026] It should be noted that the deceleration parachute 1 has a first form and a second form. When the deceleration parachute 1 is in the first form, it is stacked on top of the cloud detonation device 4. When the deceleration parachute 1 is in the second form, it can be raised to form an umbrella-shaped structure.

[0027] It should be noted that the main umbrella 2 has a third form and a fourth form. When the main umbrella 2 is in the third form, it is stacked on top of the thermobaric bomb 3. When the main umbrella 2 is in the fourth form, it can be opened to form an umbrella-shaped structure.

[0028] In one embodiment, the deceleration parachute 1 and the main parachute 2 can be stored inside the parachute pack. When the thermobaric bomb 3 descends at high speed, the main parachute 2 changes from the third form to the fourth form and opens up to form an umbrella-shaped structure. Subsequently, the deceleration parachute 1 can change from the first form to the second form and opens up to form an umbrella-shaped structure. The opening force of the deceleration parachute 1 is directly transmitted to the thermobaric bomb through the main parachute 2.

[0029] It should be noted that the installation package 5 and the connector are not limited to a specific structure. They only need to be able to conveniently place the cloud detonation device 4 into the installation package 5 for fixation. No further details will be provided here.

[0030] In this specific embodiment, the mounting package 5 is cylindrical in shape, and a plurality of connecting straps 51 are provided at circumferential intervals at the open end of the mounting package 5. The connector 6 is connected to the plurality of connecting straps 51 to form a first state that closes the cavity.

[0031] Specifically, each of the multiple connecting straps 51 is provided with a connecting hole 511, and the connector 6 includes a binding rope. The binding rope can be threaded into each connecting hole 511 on each of the connecting straps 51, and the opposite ends of the binding rope can be knotted and fixed.

[0032] It should be noted that, in order to securely fix the cloud detonation device 4, the length of the connecting strap 51 is 1 / 2 to 2 / 3 of the radius of the mounting package 5. Specifically, the length of the connecting strap 51 is 2 / 3 of the radius of the mounting package 5.

[0033] It should be noted that the canopy 21 of the deceleration parachute 1 and the main parachute 2, as well as the mounting bag 5, are all made of nylon fabric. Of course, in other embodiments, the canopy 21 of the deceleration parachute 1 and the main parachute 2, as well as the mounting bag 5, can also be made of other flexible woven materials.

[0034] In this specific embodiment, the length of the parachute rope 11 of the deceleration parachute 1 is less than the length of the radial belt 22 of the main parachute 2.

[0035] It should be noted that the bottom of the main parachute 2 is connected to the thermobaric bomb 3, and the top of the main parachute 2 is connected to the deceleration parachute 1. After the thermobaric bomb 3 is decelerated and its attitude is adjusted, the thermobaric agent is released at the preset blast height. During the formation of the thermobaric cloud, it is necessary to control the time when the cloud initiation device 4 falls into the thermobaric cloud. By opening the deceleration parachute 1, the bottom of the deceleration parachute 1 is connected to the main parachute 2. At this time, the deceleration parachute 1 effectively slows down the time when the cloud initiation device 4 falls into the thermobaric cloud. The cloud initiation device 4 is used to detonate the thermobaric cloud.

[0036] In this specific embodiment, the main umbrella 2 includes an umbrella surface 21 and multiple radial strips 22. One end of the multiple radial strips 22 is evenly arranged and connected along the circumference of the umbrella surface 21, and the other end of the multiple radial strips 22 is connected to the thermobaric bomb 3. Each of the parachute ropes 11 of the deceleration parachute 1 is respectively connected to each of the radial strips 22 of the main umbrella 2.

[0037] It should be noted that, in order to increase the air permeability of the main umbrella 2, when the main umbrella 2 is fully inflated, the airflow flowing into the main umbrella 2 can be ensured to flow out through the top hole of the main umbrella 2, thereby improving the inflation characteristics of the deceleration parachute; specifically, a vent 211 is provided at the top of the canopy 21 of the main umbrella 2. The diameter of the vent 211 is the same as the diameter of the mounting bag.

[0038] The beneficial effects are:

[0039] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a parachute system for a thermobaric bomb. The main parachute is connected to the thermobaric bomb at its bottom, and multiple parachute lines at the bottom of the deceleration parachute are connected to the top of the main parachute. The multiple parachute lines at the bottom of the deceleration parachute form an installation space. An installation bag is placed in the installation space, and the periphery of the installation bag is fixedly connected to the multiple parachute lines of the deceleration parachute. The cloud detonation device is placed in the cavity of the installation bag, and a connector is connected to the installation bag to fix the cloud detonation device in the installation bag. Under the condition of high deceleration parachute opening speed, the opening force generated by the deceleration parachute is directly transmitted to the main parachute through multiple parachute lines, and then to the thermobaric bomb through the main parachute. This effectively avoids the situation where the opening force is directly transmitted to the cloud detonation device, causing damage to the cloud detonation device.

[0040] The specific embodiments of the present invention described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made in accordance with the technical concept of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
